Florida CrIMINAL DEFENSE Lawyers Taking Proactive Measures
If you are under investigation by local law enforcement, the FBI, or the IRS, you need to seek the advice of a Florida criminal defense lawyer immediately. Unfortunately, many people think that their problem will simply go away. They may believe they can talk themselves out of the problem by meeting with an investigator, detective or police officer. Nothing could be further from the truth.
At Aiken, O’Halloran & Associates in Southwest Florida, we have an in-house criminal investigation team composed of former law enforcement officers. As state or federal law enforcement is preparing their prosecution, the attorneys at our firm will be preparing your criminal defense. Often, gathering information while memories are fresh, and while physical evidence and videos are still available, can make an enormous difference in the ultimate disposition of a criminal investigation.
If you believe you are under criminal investigation, do not hesitate to contact us 24 hours a day, seven days a week by calling any of our four locations — Fort Myers, Naples, Punta Gorda or Sarasota. Se habla español.

Don't Underestimate the Value in Remaining Silent
There is an old saying that “a fish would not have been caught had he not opened his mouth.” This is often a reality. In criminal prosecutions and trials, a confession, admission or false explanation can often constitute the most damaging evidence of guilt.
You have a right to remain silent. You have a right to an attorney. These are important constitutional rights that unwary people often give up in the mistaken belief that they can explain away a previous error in judgment. Rarely is the law enforcement gathering information that will help you. Rarely does law enforcement put in their report facts that demonstrate innocence as opposed to guilt.
